+## Release Pipeline
+
+This project uses **automated releases** via GitHub Actions. When a version tag is pushed, the pipeline automatically:
+
+1. Builds Universal JAR and Windows EXE
+2. Creates a GitHub Release (stable or pre-release based on tag format)
+3. Uploads all binaries automatically
+4. Generates release notes from commits
+
+### Creating a Release
+
+See [RELEASE.md](RELEASE.md) for detailed instructions on creating releases.
+
+**Quick example:**
+```bash
+# For a stable release
+git tag v3.0.0
+git push origin v3.0.0
+
+# For a pre-release (beta, RC, alpha)
+git tag v3.0.0-beta
+git push origin v3.0.0-beta
+```
+
+The pipeline detects pre-releases automatically (tags containing `-`) and marks them accordingly on GitHub.
